About Clever-find.com

Clever-find.com is a browser hijacker that you must have picked up when you were installing freeware. If it managed to enter your computer, it probably changed your browser’s settings and now you are stuck with a weird page as your homepage.

These changes are carried out so that you would be redirected to sponsored content easier. If you notice these changes, we do not recommend using the provided website. Hijackers are not malware but they aim to generate traffic for sponsored content by redirecting you. More traffic means more money for site owners. Some are also able to lead users to malicious sites where malware could be waiting. Browser hijackers spread using freeware bundles and that means you recently installed free software and did not notice extra offers attached to it. Delete Clever-find.com.

How do hijackers spread?

Like we said before, hijackers are attached to free software as extra offers. Those offers are not visible at first and to see them, you need to look for them. Most users use Default settings and that is where they make a mistake. Added offers are not visible there and by using them you are essentially allowing all kinds of unwanted programs to enter your computer. Make sure to always use Advanced or Custom settings because only there will you see if anything has been added. If there are extra offers, make sure to deselect everything.

Why remove Clever-find.com?

Browser hijackers are not malicious but they do not belong on your computer. The threat will make changes to your browser and set itself as your homepage and new tabs as well as alter your default search engine. You will quickly notice that these changes are irreversible. Whenever you change settings, the hijacker will just alter them after you. So you will first need to uninstall Clever-find.com. Until then, every time you open Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, you will be redirected to the hijacker’s promoted page. A search engine portal will load every time. It looks like Yahoo but you can notice slight differences. We suggest you be careful about using the search engine as it could be inserting sponsored content into the results. After all, that is how hijackers generate traffic. Some hijackers are also able to lead users to malicious sites this way. If you were to enter a malware-ridden page, you could download malicious software without even knowing. There is no reason why you should keep the hijacker on your system as it really provides nothing useful. Delete Clever-find.com.
